About this work
A young woman dressed as a bride, in a lace veil, floral wreath and pastel gown with a red rose down the bodice, stands behind a shelf holding a horned skull, a mannequin torso, a baby doll, jars and toy elephants; a caged penguin sits at lower right while she holds a small white mouse, blue-tinted glasses hiding her eyes.
Muted browns and creams in the cluttered background set off the gown's pale sheen and touches of red and green; even, flat lighting renders every odd object with equal clarity, and the deadpan expression on her face against the surreal assortment of skulls, dolls and caged animals creates an unsettling, dreamlike calm.
